NSN 1H-6150-016186142, TDP VER 003, REF NR 6879113-2, QTY 3 EA, DELIVERY FOB ORIGIN. This part requires engineering source approval by the design control activity in order to maintain the quality of the part. Existing unique design capability, engineering skills, and manufacturing knowledge by the qualified

source(s) require acquisition of the part from the approved source(s). The

approved source(s) retain data rights, manufacturing knowledge, or technical

data that are not economically available to the Government, and the data or

knowledge is essential to maintaining the quality of the part. An alternate

source must qualify in accordance with the design control activity's procedures, as approved by the cognizant Government engineering activity. The qualification procedures must be approved by the Government engineering activity having

jurisdiction over the part in the intended application. The design of this part is unstable. Engineering, manufacturing, or performance characteristics indicate that the required design objectives have not been achieved. Major changes are contemplated because the part has a low process yield or has demonstrated

marginal performance during tests or service use. These changes will render the present part obsolete and unusable in its present configuration. Limited

acquisition from the present source is anticipated pending configuration

changes. Interested parties may obtain copies of Military and Federal

Specifications and Standards, Qualified Products Lists (QPLs), Qualified Product Databases (QPDs), Military Handbooks, and other standardized documents from the DoD Single Stock Point (DODSSP) at Document Automation and Production Service (DAPS) in Philadelphia, PA.
